FDH Lounge Show #83: December 9, 2009

By Rick Morris

As we round down both the calendar year and decade and mark the end of THE FDH LOUNGE’s first year on Wednesday nights (7-10 PM EDT on SportsTalkNetwork.com), we bring you our mind-boggling dose of variety once more.

We lead off with This Week in The FDH Lounge and our Opening Statements of The FDH Lounge Dignitaries, then we make our Heisman predictions and examine the (all-too-large) celebrity death picture of 2009.

From there, good friend Simon Applebaum from the hit webcast and blog Tomorrow Will Be Televised will be on to discuss major developments from the year in TV and those to come in the next year and decade.

In Hour Two, we break down the game of the man who everyone is talking about in the NCAA hoop game, the incomparable John Wall. Then, we bring back another of our varied takes on the fantasy spots genre, our annual college football bowl pool: a ten-round standard serpentine draft of teams playing in the bowl games. It’s 5 points to correctly pick the winner of the BCS Title Game, 4 points to correctly pick the winners in the BCS Bowl games and 3 points for the winners of the other bowls. Here’s your lines for those games.

In Hour Three, THE FANTASYDRAFTHELP.COM INSIDER breaks down NFL Week 14 and we then bring on KFFL Senior Editor Cory J. Bonini for his thoughts on the fantasy football landscape. Our GOON SQUAD then concludes with a look at the present NHL standings as well as Puck Daddy’s take on optimism in Toronto and Martin Brodeur’s latest flirtation with a big record – tying Terry Sawchuk for most career shutouts with 103.

As always, we urge you to watch the show live (or listen if you’re on dial-up), but if you can’t catch this as it’s happening, you can always catch the FDH archives 24-7 right here or catch us now on iTunes!
